Awesome!
It still stuns me that coins this old can be had in choice B.U. at modest prices.

You should check out common ancients and mideval. There are quite a few issues available in uncirculated for well under $1,000.00. This usually surprises collectors of lightside coins or modern darkside coins.

The best bargains are usually to be had for issues for which there is no generally available catalog in English.

Have fun building your own museum!
